Student cost of living support


October 24th, 2022

The university has put together a programme of support for students facing financial challenges due to the cost-of-living crisis.

With students among the groups most likely to be affected by the cost-of-living crisis, the university has compiled a package of financial and wellbeing support.

The support package includes two support funds – the Student Hardship Fund and the Student Crisis Fund. The Student Hardship Fund provides financial assistance towards living costs while the Student Crisis Fund offers interest-free loans to any student who is experiencing financial difficulties because of an unexpected change in their circumstances.

The package also outlines initiatives and resources to help students keep costs down, including campus kitchen access, shower facilities, study spaces, and an increase in the number of free period products.

We’re asking for the help of student-facing staff in signposting these resources to students.
